Thanks for your response Isi. I know flours can vary in moisture content depending on where the wheat is grown.

Here is the Susan Loomis recipe I used.

I note the  flour is folded in. I wondered if perhaps using a shorter blend time after adding the flour and butter might give me a better result.

But they did look nice and I will try the recipe again.

Raspberry Ice Cream:

6 firm bananas
150 grams raspberries:


Peel and chop Bananas into chunks, freeze overnight. Freeze Raspberries. Next day remove fruit from freezer and soften for 20 minutes. Place fruit into Thermomix and blend until smooth. I blended on speed 9 about (I think) 15 seconds.:

The recipe originates from a Jill Dupliex cook book.

Has anyone made Panettone in the Thermomix? And if so would you like to share your recipe please?

I've made these twice and both times the mixture is too wet. First time I followed recipe with home made buttermilk. Second time I used milk and reduced amount of liquid. Firstly is storebought buttermilk thicker or heavier than homemade? Secondly if not then is the recipe too heavy on liquid?

Sorry Cathy I misunderstood.  The top cross mixture is as written book. I'd reduce the amount of water when making them.

I recently made the Hot Cross Buns recipe from the Thermomix book. I made a slight change and replaced the currants with extra sultanas. These were the most successful Hot Cross Buns I've ever made. One small complaint - the cross mixture for the top was a little runny and next time I would reduce the amount of water.

You can see them here.

I take delivery of my Thermomix on  Monday. I look forward to making the best use of it with suggestions from this forum.
